Hot take: C++ Twitter seems caught up in a weird memory safety “skills issue” debate this week, but let’s not forget what makes Rust truly shine. It’s not just about memory safety; it’s about fearless refactoring enabled by the stellar type system. #Rustlang 🦀

I love how whatever dot @Spottnik @seattledot @wsdot installed this temp bike lane decided it needs this much crash buffer. On a 20mph. Across from a stop sign. And my first thought, “seems legit”,not“how ridiculous” 😆 @TheWarOnCars (also note car still parked in bike lane 🤦‍♂️)

Neat! The 2016-2018 sections is all stuff I was closely involved in while working on fbios startup performance. I moved off of mobile in 2019 before the Swift stuff came online.

.@Atlas_Van_Lines your drivers are blocking a high traffic bike lane in Seattle. Please advise them that this is dangerous and inappropriate behavior.

I’m turning into someone I do not like. I have become a crazy person yelling at LOUD cars. Can anything be done about vehicles that have modified/removed mufflers (specifically: Aurora, Dexter, and Westlake near SLU)? @SeattlePD @seattledot @Spottnik @UrbanistOrg it’s SO LOUD!!

How anyone is surprised by the current Colorado River issues, I remember watching this film about it nearly *a decade ago*. Have we just done nothing in that time? Humans suck :( vimeo.com/114386144

Compiler internals are quite different from linker internals, but I found that Zig compiler's data-oriented design is very similar to what I was thinking when I was designing the mold linker. I enjoyed watching @andy_kelley's talk. vimeo.com/649009599#t=30…
